A Long Weekend

I guess it's been a while since I last posted.  I tried to write a post on Thirsday but I just wasn't into it and didn't have much to say.  So I didn't post what I wrote.  Then yesterday was a holiday so I had off, which would seem like a perfect opportunity to post except I try not to be on the computer or attached to technology when I'm home with Evan.  And when he was napping I did the responsible thing and watched NCIS and Parenthood.  I can proudly announce that I finished the entire season 4 of Parentohood already and am tempted to watch the live version on TV this season, but am not 100% sure.  I just don't know if I can wait an entire year...but then I hate waiting in anticipation each week because they end each show on a thread.  And now I have to choose another series to watch.  Any good suggestions out there?  I don't have a lot of options because I'm watching it on Amazon Prime.  I really wanted to watch Call the Midwives, but it's not on Prime.  Oh well.  I can watch Friday Nigh Lights or Downton Abby or Covert Affairs, and maybe some others.  I will have to see.  I need something good that entertains me while I wash dishes and fold laundry.

This weekend was pretty low-key, which was nice.  After a couple of go-go-go weekends it was nice to stay in the house and chill.  It rained a lot all week and even on Friday night.  That didn't stop us from heading to the football game.  We just put our rain gear on.

On Saturday I went grocery shopping and took Evan to the park.  The park wasn't that fun because he's a bit too little for the big slides and there were no swings, but it was nice to be outside.  We also went to Red Robin, which I love, and had some hamburgers and spent some money at Target.  I bought candy corn M&Ms, but they aren't that tasty.  A bit too sweet for me, but that hasn't stopped me from eating a bunch of them.

Sunday we went to my sister's for dinner and I actually went for a run, by myself.  No baby, no jogging stroller, just me, my shoes, and the pavement.  It was nice and I went 4.5 miles.  I was just gonna do 4 miles but the run felt so great the I ended up doing an extra half mile.  Then I walked the dog to cool down.  

I don't know what's up with his hair.  It is always looks like he just woke up.

Yesterday was beautiful out so Evan and I took Dolce for a nice walk, played on the swings again, and hung out waiting for the dryer guy to come fix the dryer.  I made some bread but I forgot to add the water so it turned out a bid solid and dry, so I threw it out.  I also made salsa chicken in the crock pot and crepes.  In the evening my sister invited me over for hot apple cidar, so I took Evan in his truck and we walked over there.  It was definitely a commitment pushing him in the truck, but he managed just fine.  I read a few books to my sister's kids and drank cidar before walking back home.  Then I ate dinner, cleaned up, did a chem assignment, and went to bed.

He looks so chill...hopefully this isn't a preview of his driving style.

Now it's Tuesday and it's back to work.  Fun times!

How was your weekend??!
